There shouldn't be any need to coil an anchor rode. If you think about it, look at what happens on a boat that has a haus pipe on deck at the bow. As the anchor is pulled up the rode is dropped into the haus pipe and down into the anchor locker. It doesn't get coiled and it doesn't ever get wadded up. I like the milk crate idea since it would be pretty easy to wash/rinse the rode without taking it all out.

I am as far as coiling the rode into a bucket, but never thought of the bag. Great idea, and will take up much less space.
